Suu Kyi trial adjourned in Myanmar
The trial in Myanmar of detained opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been postponed.
Suu Kyi, 64, was "abolutely dissatisfied" with the decision of an army-ruled court in Yangon, Myanmar's capital, to allow prosecutors more time to prepare their final arguments in the case, said Nyan Win, one of her lawyers.
Lawyers for the Nobel peace laureate early on Friday gave their closing arguments in the trial that could lead to Suu Kyi being jailed for five years if she is found guilty of violating the terms of her house arrest.
Win told the Reuters news agency that prosecutors had been told to deliver their final arguments on Monday.
Win said that to ensure fairness, the usual practice was for courts to allow both parties to give their closing arguments on the same day.
